Another research question involved the relationship between scores on the Test and Class Anxiety subscale and attitude toward computers and internet subscale. Use SPSS to conduct the analysis that is appropriate for this research question and answer each of the following questions.
If a statistical significance test is used, you should use .05 as the critical level of significance.
Questions:
1.
What is the appropriate analysis for examining the relationship between scores on the Test and Class Anxiety and attitude toward computers and internet subscales?
Testing Correlations 2.
Write an appropriate null hypothesis for this analysis.
There will be no statistically significant relationship between the scores on the Test and Class Anxiety subscale and attitude toward computers and internet subscale. 3.
Write an appropriate non-directional hypothesis for this analysis.
There will be a relationship between the scores on the Test and Class Anxiety subscale and attitude toward computers and internet subscale.
4.
What is the mean Test and Class Anxiety score? What is the mean attitude toward computers and internet score?
Test and Class Anxiety- M= 3.31
Attitude toward Computers and Internet- M= 3.76
5.
What are the standard deviations for Test and Class Anxiety and attitude toward computers and internet scores?
Test and Class Anxiety- SD= .87
Attitude toward Computers and Internet- SD= .83
6.
What is the value of the statistic representing the relationship between the Test and Class Anxiety and attitude toward computers and internet scores?
r= -.237
7.
Based on the value of the statistic identified in the previous question, how would you classify the strength of this relationship?
The correlation coefficient is weak to moderate relationship.
8.
Based on the value of the statistic identified in the previous question (#6), how would you
classify the direction of this relationship? What is the correct interpretation of the direction?
Negative relationship between the scores on the Test and Class Anxiety subscale and
attitude toward computers and internet subscale.
9.
What is the appropriate value for the degrees of freedom?
df= 118 (120-2) 10. What is the reported level of significance?
p= .009
11. Based on the level of significance, would you reject the null hypothesis?
Yes, .009 < .05
12. Based on the level of significance, is the relationship between Test and Class Anxiety and
attitude toward computers and internet statistically significant?
Yes, .009 < .05
13. Present the results as they might appear in an article. This must include a table and narrative statement that reports and interprets the results of your analysis.
Table 1 contains the results of the correlational analysis. The results indicated weak to moderate and statistically significant relationship, r(120) = -.237, p = .009, between the scores on the Test and Class Anxiety subscale (M = 3.31, SD = .87) and attitude toward computers and internet subscale (M = 3.76, SD = .83). The negative value of the correlation relationship between the scores on the Test and Class Anxiety subscale and attitude toward computers and internet subscale.
